Together 4 Youth is a large-scale collaboration of ‘for purpose’ organisations who share the collective vision of improving the lives of young people in schools across Australia. The members of Together 4 Youth have united to amplify the voice of young people and effectively support them through their educational journey and into thriving futures.
Commencing in 2020, Together 4 Youth is the first collaboration to deliver be-spoke wellbeing and transition programs into schools, with reach across all states and territories. Each organisation believes in and is committed to working together and acknowledge that by collaborating we can achieve more and have a greater impact on improving student outcomes.
Each organisation within Together 4 Youth has a proven track record of successfully support secondary students through programs focused on social and emotional wellbeing, engagement in education and preparation for meaningful employment. They are aware of the challenges faced by young people and schools and know that we can be more efficient and effective working together, achieving more significant change and have a longer-term impact for young people, their schools, communities, and funders, through our unique coordinated approach.

Together 4 Youth have three focus areas: Advocacy, Evaluation, and In-School Implementation.
Advocacy
Through working in schools and with schools we have a close association with students. Our work with students gives us a unique insight allowing us to hear what they need, empowering them to utilise voice through our programs and amplifying this externally to decision makers to improve youth life experiences.
Evaluation
We are committed to utilising evaluation methods that are academically rigorous and reflective of student voice. Our evaluation methods have been developed in conjunction with the University of New South Wales – Centre for Social Impact and utilised across our service providers to capture trends and items of importance for today’s students.
In-School Implementation
We listen to the challenges that are unique to each school and student cohort, helping to create a suite of complementary wellbeing, engagement, and transition to work programs from across our network. In conjunction with our school partners, we implement the program to deliver enhanced levels of collaboration and case management.
